GuangQunFangPu: e-Humanities Combining Textual and Botanic Information

In this paper, we propose a lexicon-driven and ontologymerging methodology of constructing diachronic domain knowledge via Sinica BOW, a bilingual ontological lexical resource based on WordNet and SUMO ontology. The main domain knowledge that we model our specialized ontology on is GuangQunFangPu, a Chinese classic literature of botany. Our studies yields promising result, we believe that the proposed research scenario will boost the on-going development of e-Humanities.
